Looking for Burl Wood Grips...
I am looking for a set of Government 1911 (with ambi safety) grips in Burl wood. Preferably burl Maple, but I'll look at any burl wood (Thuya, anything).
If anyone knows where I can get a set, please let me know. Attached is a pic of what I'm looking for. These are Maple. Thanks. Patrick |
